I'd love to be able to filter for more explicit versions of work/life balance. For example, if I could find a job with a 4-day work week and 6 weeks of PTO, I'd sign up in a heartbeat.
Instead the companies on this site that value work/life balance say things like "there is a lot of interest in fitness, nutrition, biohacking, and meditation" which is kind of meaningless to me.
- Cyclone_ 8y agoI believe having the company explain the value is the idea, since values could mean something different to everyone.
- badfrog 8y agoYeah for sure. I just wish I could filter by fine-grained ideas instead of having to read 30 paragraphs to find what I'm looking for.
- lynnetye 8y agoSounds like that company’s definition doesn’t resonate with you. Perfect. Now you know not to even bother applying.

- ThePadawan 8y agoNot sure if this is helpful, but IMO this might be due to a US/Europe disconnect (?). 4-day work week, 6 weeks off is within negotiable distance in Switzerland (from personal experience - have worked 4day/5weeks before). The extra 1-2 weeks PTO (on top of the legally mandated 4) are typical for larger enterprises such as governmental work or the postal system.
